It's probably an increase in air pressure due to the heat that's causing the alarm to think someone is pressing on the window or door - depending on the alarm it could also be the internal sensors - should have a swith on the remote (or in the car itself) to disable this part of the alarm (e.g. for when you leave a animal in the car).
Mine used to go off for no apparent reason when parked up in the garage. It was suggested that I use the vaccum cleaner on the sensors inside, in the middle of the roof. Apparently dust and whatever collects in there making the sensors tempermental (especially if you smoke in the car like I do).
Having done that, feeling as though Beadle would jump out, it has not gone off for no reason since.
