I would definitely worry about it! It would be worse
in a closed shed with no air circulation, or if the
slab was on top of a naturally damp area.
I believe that if you are building a garage, etc, you
are supposed to put a plastic vapor barrier under the
cement.
A plastic sheet would probably help if it did not
collect rainwater and make things worse. If you are
sure you will not be touching the cars, you could wrap
a big plastic sheet around each car, seal it with
tape, and put a tub of moisture absorber under the
car.
