False triggering, or too much EMI, anything?

It shouldn't. The computer is encased in an EFI suppression/shielded metal housing. As long as the case is intact, the internal computer parts will be shielded. It doesn't take much metal to shield from EFI/EMF ... besides the computer case, you also have the metal firewall, metal cowl and advantages of distance from the source working on your side.
However, stranger things have happened. If or until you run into unresolved computer related problems there should be not reason for concern.
