Can leaving a pregnancy test in a hot car cause a false positive?

Jessica

I've taken two other tests that were positive a few days ago and they were not left in any heat or cold. I took another one today that I had left in a hot car and it was a very strong positive. I'm 3 weeks late for my period. Can I trust the results from this test too since it was left in the heat?
