reset password on new iPhone 12 Plus Pro

Trying to reset password. Facial recognition quit working. When setting up, only three days ago, it never asked me for a pass code number. I cannot use my phone.

No the phone did ask you to create a 6 digit passcode when you set it up, there is no way to use Face id without one.
