At that very low power levels chance of raising the temperature of skin is negligible, let alone deeper in body.
Most likely the RF power being measured is at a much lower frequency and is likely related to things like switch mode power supplies used to charge the battery - at this lower frequency the photons won't be harmful.

Heck, I'd say the seat heater mat alone would make a decent Farady shield all by itself let alone the sheet metal Floorplan to keep one's nads intact.
