Check your air pressure!

Teaches you to always recheck what you can after having your car serviced,on rare occasions they will actually forget to put the new oil in the car.,27psi isnt out of the ball park for operating parameters for your car,i usually run 28psi in winter to get a bit more traction.
Then theres always the possibility that the mechanic did in fact fill your tires to the correct pressure and your tire pressure gauge is misreading the correct psi. i once had a digital pressure gauge that was 10psi off. I've since bought my tire pressure gauges at the local speed shop and try to get the ones the racers use heres my current gauge

Between $30 to $40
As for the 40psi max on that particular model they do make others

That won't work for the hypermilers that put 50 psi in each tire.

Ah, I had not noticed that the max pressure for that gauge is 40 psi.

Well, I only plan to run the recommended 32 psi, so that gauge would work for me.

Or that the mechanic's gauge was off. Tire gauges and scales are immensely variable.
