Both of your VLANs are configured by DHCP, and have the same metric (0
by default).

What really happens is one default route get replaced by another.
Whichever happens to be getting the lease last - wins.


If you need the default route on eno1.7 to appear and to be used -
assign lower metric to it. Like this (32 and 64 are arbitrary):

# cam
auto eno1.3
allow-hotplug eno1.3
iface eno1.3 inet dhcp
	metric 64
iface eno1.3 inet6 auto
	accept_ra 0

# data
auto eno1.7
allow-hotplug eno1.7
iface eno1.7 inet dhcp
	metric 32
iface eno1.7 inet6 auto
	accept_ra 0
