Your fallacy is in confusing gross motion of a body with thermal motion of the particles inside it..

You are muddling the question of "does this happen?" with the question of "how does this happen?".The second only makes sense if you already concluded that the answer to the first is yes.
Yes, but that's not what you were doing.
Thermal motion is the displacement of particles within[ a body relative to each other and (in the "one particle " case, or) the boundaries of the body. Gross motion is the displacement of the entire body relative to other bodies.
You can indeed heat things by shaking them. If the gas or liquid has nonzero viscosity, some of the kinetic energy of shaking the walls is transferred to the fluid. Friction heating of a solid is the same thing - we routinely use ultrasonic welding for plastics.
The result of vibration is thermal energy.
How very true. And before you applied the brakes, the car had kinetic energy, which turned into heat in the brake discs or electrical energy via the regen system. So what?
What's the fundamental difference between gross motion and thermal motion?
