Are 2007 Monacos subject to Radiator Failure?
Country Coach was plagued with radiator failures in many of their coaches a few years back, and I lost a radiator in a 2002 Endeavor as well. They were aluminum, built by an outfit in Sacramento, CA ...

StuarT......The Country Coach issue was a radiator that incorporated the trans cooler into the radiator and was a bad design.
The Endeavor was a rear radiator where Monaco stacked the Charge Air Cooler on top of the radiator with no insulation. The radiator was mounted very rigidly and caused cracking issues.
The Camelot is a side radiator unit, with a separate trans cooler. I don't think you'll see radiator issues with Camelot. I have no information on the CCC, but there was an issue for a couple of years with bedroom heat.
On the Camelot, the engine compartment was very boxy and the rear doors were solid. This caused a lot of heat to build up in the bedroom from radiated heat in the engine compartment.
The cure was an opening, about 36" long by about 6" tall cut above the engine doors and a couple of electric automotive fans mounted behind the cut out.
