Hi,
The ritual of pidyon haben is performed for a firstborn son of parents who are from neither kohen nor levi stock, and only if this was the mother's first pregnancy.
If a boy had not had a pidyon haben, and he does not know whether his parents had kohen or levi lineage, then upon reaching adulthood he should perform pidyon haben without reciting a blessing.
(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Yoreh Deah 1:188)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
