I once left my 5D in the warm car one afternoon. After use it had "gunk" on the
sensor that would not blow off. I believe the heat loosened some oil/lubricant from the
shutter, which then landed on the sensor.
I seem to recall that this was a known problem with Canon's, at least those of
that era.
I do recall being careful with my cameras in that regard, from reading about
that problem.
Interesting side note. My first DSLR was the first Rebel, and it was silver colored. As a test, I set it next to a black
camera in the sun. After just a few minutes, the black camera was much warmer. After that, I have always been careful to
keep my black cameras from sitting out in direct sun; find a shady spot, cover with a hat, and such.
