If you did not report the 1099-R on your 2018 tax return then you need to amend and report it. Most 401(k) distributions are fully taxable, unless the box 2a indicates a lessor amount than box 1.
Amended returns can only be mailed. It is suggested that it be mailed certified with return receipt (or other tracking service) to verify that the IRS receives it.
See this TurboTax FAQ for detailed amend instructions:
