Check your settings in Notifications. Check to see if the Mute Switch is on. Check to make sure that Do Not Disturb is on.

On an iPhone Xmax suddenly no notification sound when receiving text. I've tried everything and nothing works. I'm missing important text messages. I've had the phone since November 2018.

No. Occasionally, I notice my phone did not ring but there is a missed call.
